Linux@Business - Does Linux really work?

With the US economic downturn - most businesses are reigning in on spending. Now is the time
for strategic planning - measuring current and projected business requirements over the next 12 months. Taking this further, strategic planning will include
strong IT elements - after all - when business and consumer customers respond positively to the upturn in the US economic picture, no doubt there will be

spanning over 1300 users and 250 desktops is proof enough for me!

Next question is "Just how do I go about trialling LINUX?" Well, start with
seeing just what you need at
the moment. Perhaps you are not relishing Microsoft's 3yr 'software
rental' scheme, or maybe you are tired of how much Microsoft's software consumes
your IT budget. Or, just perhaps, it's the problem that Microsoft software
